- Ambritt Die Casting Company
- American Die Casting Company

- Rangers Die Casting Company
Kinetic Die Casting Company is doing very well. A few other of these die casting companies are doing well but many of these companies are nearly out of business. Two “die casting companies” on this list are down to a “one man operation” while a some others only have a few employees that are called in to work when a new purchase order arrives. A few of these companies are barely making the monthly payroll and utilities expenses. In fact, one of these companies will produce parts in exchange for metal, because they are COD with their metal supplier and they do not have the cash to buy materials to supply their other customers with parts.
If you are a buyer of die casting parts, consider this:
- If the die cast parts you are buying are more expensive everywhere else you look, your die casting supplier is hurting and may go out of business.
- If your die casting supplier does go out of business, how do you get your die cast tooling?
Kinetic Die Casting Company:
The good news for Kinetic Die Casting Company customers is that we finished the 2010 year very strong.
We have a full work backlog for January 2011 and we look forward to obtaining greater goals in future years.
You should consider moving your die casting part requirements to Kinetic Die Casting Company if you are unsure of your present die casting parts supplier.

The Many Advantages of New Aluminum Aircraft Parts
The Many Advantages of New Aluminum Aircraft Parts. For many years now, the military and commercial aircrafts are heavily relying on the use of cast aluminum. This metal basically makes up the 80% of the general structure of the plane by weight. Perhaps the reason why cast aluminum is so popular in the aviation industry is because it has the properties that are essential for an airframe. The new aluminum aircraft parts are currently being produced to meet the demands of today’s aircraft builders.
The use of aluminum aircraft parts has seriously created an impact on the aviation industry. For one, the manufactured parts allowed the builders to cut on material expenses. They are simply ideal for large-scale fabrication of airframes. Aircraft builders have found out that they will save more on manufacturing expenses if they utilize the new aluminum aircraft parts.
Aircraft parts that are made of aluminum are actually produced through the process of die-casting. The advantages of this procedure are clearly evident. Die cast aluminum parts have accurate dimensions just like the original pieces. Aside from that, they usually come out of the molds with smooth surfaces.
The die casting companies are the main producers of aircraft parts. They can customize and duplicate a variety of component parts for their clients. They manufacture different sizes and shapes, and they can even assist their clients in formulating new design concepts for their aircrafts.

Using New Cast Aluminum Boxes for Various Applications
Using New Cast Aluminum Boxes for Various Applications. Aluminum is material that is extensively being used today for various applications and purposes. One of the many purposes that it serves is to protect valuable items and component parts from harmful elements. As a result of this need, the die casting companies produced new cast aluminum boxes. These boxes are found in every product that requires a good shelter from different forms of contamination. They are popular as either storage spaces or protective covers for several items.
Aluminum boxes are prominent in vehicles as engine and transportation enclosures. They can be large enough to hold heavy equipments at the back of the trucks, or they can be small enough to be located inside the automobiles. They are electrically conductive and are highly durable which make them the ideal storage boxes for any types of vehicle.
Most computer and communication devices also utilize aluminum boxes and housings. In the manufacture of computer hardware, disk drives are produced with aluminum housings. The communication devices, on the other hand, are sheltered by aluminum casings in order to deter the unwanted radio frequencies and other technical interference.
Unlike with steel housings and compartments, the aluminum boxes do not have welded sides and corners. Because of their seamless looks, they are now being used in both homes and office spaces. You can find them as filing cabinets, drawers and even mailboxes.

Spending Less on Aircraft Parts with New Aerospace Die Castings
Spending Less on Aircraft Parts with New Aerospace Die Castings. In the aircraft industry, the cast aluminum metal has established a wide application in the production of both major and minor component parts. It has long been utilized in this field since the aviation entered the commercial scene. Even before the commercial aircrafts have given the chance to take off, the military has already used this metal along with its alloys for the manufacture of the parts of fighter planes. The good thing about the new aerospace die castings is that they are now geared to endure harsh weather conditions and increased damages.
Because of the recent rise in the cost of manufacturing materials, the owners of aircraft companies are now considering the potential of the aluminum casting technology. Cast aluminum is much more affordable than any other metals that are used in planes. Combined with other metals, it produces a piece that is extremely durable yet considerably flexible.
The use of aluminum die cast parts tends to allow the builders of aircrafts to cut on manufacturing expenses without even sacrificing the over-all quality of their trade. There is actually a certain standard that has been established for the use of aluminum in aircrafts so the parts are certified safe in the aerospace. Another good thing about an aluminum die cast part is that its weight appears to be favorable for the aircraft operations.

Why Did These California Die Casting Companies Close
I was thinking of my recent discovery of the closure of Die Cast Manufacturing Company in Bloomington California. The other casualties in the California die casting industry came to my mind:
- Die Cast Manufacturing Company, Bloomington California.
- Modern Die Casting Company, Paramount California.
- Lansco Die Casting Company, City of Industry California.
- Pomona Die Casting Company, Pomona California.
- C&D Die Casting Company, Chatsworth California.
- Chapman Die Casting Company, City of Industry California.
- Spencer Die Casting Company, Vernon California.
- Coast Die Casting Company, Gardena California.
- Compu Die Casting Company Compton California.
- Universal Die Casting Company, Los Angeles California.
- Del Mar Die Casting Company, Gardena California.
- Los Angeles Die Casting Company, Commerce California.
These companies either closed or were sold to competitors. My company, Kinetic Die Casting Company, purchased two die casting companies from the above list. Why did the companies that closed, close? That question comes to my mind frequently. These companies are all recent casualties, 10 years or less. There is a much longer list of closed die casting companies from over the last 30 years.
Some of my remaining competitors are still doing poorly. Three or four of these remaining California Die Casting companies are actively trying to sell their operations before they have to close. The ones that I cannot make an agreement with, I hope will be purchased by another competitor, or I hope they can hang in there until California can get “economic recovery”. Good luck to all of us California Manufacturers.
